The expansion of the Tirana-Durrës highway with two more lanes, with a length of about 31 kilometers, will cost over 3.3 billion lek or more than 32 million euros
In the tendering procedure planned to be announced within this year by the Albanian Road Authority, the works will be carried out in two phases. The first phase, which envisages the expansion to 35.1 meters from the current 18.6 meters of the highway, will cost over 1.6 billion ALL.
The same amount of money is planned to come out of the state budget for the works in the second phase, which includes the segment Kthesa e Rinasit-Durrës.
In parallel, the Albanian Road Authority plans to open another tender for the reconstruction of the old Kombinat-Ndroq-Plepa road. The fund available for the construction of the first lot of this road is slightly more than 1 billion ALL.
Work on the construction of the Berat-Ballaban road is expected to start within this year. The road axis with a length of 58 kilometers that connects the district of Berat with that of Gjirokastra is expected to cost over 4.1 billion ALL. For the first lot of works, a little more than 1.9 billion ALL have been made available, while for the second, almost 2.3 billion ALL.
The road axes, whose construction works are planned to last over two years, serve both Albanian citizens and foreign tourists.
